Mass Migration, ramp drag construction and more!
Migrating many bots/astronauts before this update wasn't an easy task. As you may know each AI is looking for a job and can migrate when finding one - for example miners to the mine, scientists to the laboratory. That was the only mechanic that could help with migrating many drones. But what about transport drones, newcomers etc? You could use menu in the Astronauts panel (P).
As you can see, only one selected astronaut could be migrated. It requires many click. With new mass migration, you decide: where to migrate, how many bots, what status (idle, all), and station.
Before the update, 12 different construction modes were present in the game, allowing players to construct vertical/horizontal lines, boxes, floors, walls, diagonal, snap elements, single and custom. Two more are now present! Creating RAMP LINES!
I will stream again, showing new tools that just came to the game, continuing a previously started game! Please wish me good luck and check the stream on Twitch: https://www.twitch.tv/Tefel Thanks guys so much for support! Tefel (Terad Games)
